Family

Although there are suggestions that this "Martini" is the son of the former Geelong footballer, Percy Martini, [2] the fact that Percy Martin's wife, May Victoria Martin (1887–1928), née Machar, died some two years before Ray Martini's birth, and that there's no record of Percy Martin ever remarrying (or, in contrast, being the father of an extra-marital child) seems to indicate that there's no substance to these claims.

Football

Williamstown (VFA)

He played with Williamstown for two seasons: 1954 and 1955 [3] [4] totalling 10 senior games and kicking 6 goals.
